Icon hoarders, take note - I've started an icons site! I stole the "pile o' icons" bit from a comment made by egretplume, and added the "Scarlett's" bit myself. ;) At the moment there are 197 icons; I keep making and adding more though, so I'll probably pass the 200 mark soon. :)

In other news... eh, no new news. I've been to the psychiatrist and we're getting a handle on everything, upping my meds, and talking and stuff. Then I'll probably go through CBT again - maybe - it depends, I guess, on whether the meds work enough so that I can work through the OCD bit of all this. The depression bit is the one we need to nip in the bud. So, to clarify - I now know that it's not just *me* (I'd been thinking that all my issues are flaring up just because... well, just because, and not because there was really anything going on), it's a combination of depression and OCD and mental, emotional, and somatic symptoms (oh lovely!), due mainly to this weird transitional phase I'm in (from high school to college). So, my family and I are just riding this out and taking things as they come. It's just magic being me, it really is...

I'm not wallowing in my misery though, I'm stronger than that. I'm sort of dozing in it. ;)

And it's a weird sort of misery. I don't have anything tangible to be miserable about, and I know that, but that (of course) doesn't help anything. It's just my mind and my funky mental/emotional state. All I can, and should, do is take it easy and try to relax. Whoop.

Let's see, not much to ramble about aside from all that (see above :) ). My Bedazzled/The Best Of What's Left Of Not Only... But Also... vids came and I'm quite pleased! I'm now in the habit of quoting stuff from the NOBA sketches because I'm a big doofus who quotes stuff. :) And I've been quoting Bedazzled ever since I saw it, cos it's so quotable. Just about the most quotable thing you ever did see. (Erm, it's a play on a quote from it. Told you I'm a big doofus! :D )

*twiddles thumbs*

Oh, you wanna know something really sad? I had this one line from a song stuck in my head, but not the whole line, and even though I was listening to music (Rolling Stones), that line kept going around in my head, and I got so fed up I actually Googled the bit of the line I had stuck in my head. It was really frustrating! Turned out it was Changes, by David Bowie. It was the "And these children that you spit on..." line, but only the "And these children that you spit on" bit stuck in my head, and couldn't place who sang it or what it was from.

I once had a line from Lily of the Valley (Queen) stuck in my head for a few days, I think, but couldn't figure out which song it was from. I knew it was Queen, but just could not, for the life of me, figure out which song it came from. Then out of nowhere a line after it came to me and I actually said, out loud, "Lily of the Valley!". The line was "I lie in wait with open eyes..." - just "I lie in wait with open eyes". That really bugged me too, but at least I didn't Google it. That's really, really sad of me. ;)

Cheery bye, Scarlett
